Positive Impact

Earlier this month I was fortunate to speak at #140edu in New York City. The title of my 15 minute presentation was "School Improvement One Character at a Time." I used this opportunity to discuss the positive impact that social media has had on the culture of my school and professional growth as a school leader. Here are 6 ways I am using social media in education to improve teaching, learning, and leading:

Communication

Public Relations

Branding

Professional Growth/Development

Student Engagement

Opportunity

The video of my presentation below describes each of the categories above in more detail.

Is social media having a positive impact on your work as an educator? If so how?

Eric, I recently joined Twitter and was lucky enough to find generous educators like you. Social Media has exposed me to great resources in both materials and people which I am happy to share with my colleagues. I will be sharing your video too. Thank you
